Description

In this episode, we chat with author, graphic designer and avid savvy traveler Katie Wilson about her incredible 16th-anniversary trip to St. Martin, planned entirely using points and miles—but with a twist! Katie shares how they booked flights, hotel stays, rental cars, and excursions with points, keeping their out-of-pocket costs under $600. She takes us through her adventures, including where they stayed and the amazing excursions they experienced. Katie explains her points and miles strategies, including how they are working towards a Southwest Companion Pass, and she shares how she maximizes rewards for airfare, hotels, and excursions. She also gives us a sneak peek at upcoming family trips, including a points-and-miles-funded adventure to Panama City. This episode is packed with practical tips, inspiring ideas, and real-life examples of how to travel more while spending less.
